    My daughter loves these shoes. She's a big fan of anything green and Vans. On the downside, they don't have much arch support but I bought inserts and that solved the problem.

    The first few times I wore this, the back of the shoe was digging into my ankle, rubbing my skin into a cut. After a week or so, the material wore down enough so it's no longer an issue as long as I keep them tied tight enough. Other than that they're really basic shoes, no extra support anywhere, flat foot. And they look awesome! I get compliments on them often.

    I recently purchased the smooth leather Era for me, and the canvas style for my wife. When I ordered them, Zappos was changing their shipping procedures, and I complained when I didn't get them right away as I've ordered several pairs of shoes from them and never had this problem. In the end they ended up comping me over $150! I got the shoes for free, and Zappos has a customer for life. Back to the shoes: the Eras are a good shoe. My wife and and I are tall people with big feet, but Vans succeed in disguising this fact well. The minimal styling, basic, classy, oldschool charm of the shoes is the best out there. You couldn't give me a pair of Nikes or Addidas. I used to play Basketball in Skate Hi's for heavens sake, that's how much I like this brand. A lot of shoe companies copy the Vans style, but they really don't come close. I've owned Eras, Slip Ons, Skate Hi's, Chukka Boots, and Chukka Lows. Van's are comfortable but not on your feet all day work shoes, and aren't meant to be. They're a skating and casual shoe, but they're cool. Vans are the only skate shoe as far as I'm concerned, and my life long choice of casual foot wear.

    Great looking sneaker. It's so stylish. The only negative is that it doesn't have any arch support. That being said, I would get these many many times over.

    These Vans are truly rocking! They are such a great deal. They come in the normal shoe size you are. They are exactly as if I would have bought them at PacSun or any other store. I truly recommend these shoes as for it's a sin to not purchase them.

    Great shoes! But if you put a lot of pressure on your heels when walking (as I do) the insoles tend to wear down pretty fast. Just a warning.

    Holy crap! stop the video reviews this review sounds like every other sneaker review you have a traditional lace up system, even mid-sole, this and that for comfort and support. Zappos, look at the shoe, tell us what is different than what I can see from pictures and descriptions. Please stop wasting my time.
